"Colegio Nacionalizado La Presentación" is located
at Duitama, Department of Boyacá.
Photos available on the website
of the institute show two different versions of the flag.
On photos
taken during the Colours ceremony 2008, the flag is horizontally
divided blue-white with the emblem of the institute in the
middle.
On photos
taken during the "Intercolegiados" sports event, 17
July 2008, the flag is horizontally divided white-blue with the
emblem of the institute in the middle.
To make the things even simplier, the flag used during the Colours
ceremony at the Higueras section of the institute seems to be
horizontally divided white-blue, without the emblem (but the
emblem on the other flags is quite small, therefore it may have
remained hidden in the flag folds).
The emblem of the institute shows, on a white disk bordered by a
blue ring with the name of the institute in white capital
letters, a blue disk outlined in yellow, charged with a yellow
bee in the middle and ten yellow disks on the border, and
surmonted by a yellow cross.
